Make a statement with this matching intarsia jumper and colour work beanie using Cleckheaton Rodinia Tweed 10 ply.

Winter Explorers includes two patterns each using a different colour work technique. The Jumper is knit in pieces from the bottom up and seamed. The design includes striped accents on the sleeves and a bold intarsia colour blocked v-shape on both the front and back. The Beanie is worked in the round on double-pointed needles, using stranded colour work to create the zig zag effect. Intermediate skill is needed for the colour work techniques. Model 1 wears colourway 1 in size 10, model 2 wears colourway 3 in size 4.
